My life would have been different and miserable had I not met him. Along with OCD therapy, he helped me sort my personal life issues as well. Attending his therapy sessions made me able to get over my OCD rituals. He is a very friendly doctor who makes sure that his patient is not hesitant of expressing any kind of issue. He has always given me right direction whenever I am anxious which helped me to take good decisions at difficult times.

I visited Dr Satish Kumar for my sleeping disorder issue. First of all he made me feel comfortable and gave his ample amount of time to completely understand my problem. He patiently listened to my issues and explained the root cause of problems. In his counselling sessions he gave me lots of suggestions and answered many of my queries which helped me overcome my anxiety issues and slowly recovered my sleep issue.

If you're going to him for help in fixing your marriage, please don't. He lacks the empathy and genuine concern for counseling. **** ***** ** ***** **** ** *** *** doesn't really think through how his words will further affect the already beleaguered marriage. I wonder how he deals with cases of extreme sensitivity. *** **** ******** **** ** ******* **** **** *** ************ *** *** **** You'll definitely not find any solution to your problems with him, you're much better off with literally anyone else.

It felt like he was just trying to get the appointment over with. At the first appointment, he just gave me a diagnosis *** *** *** ******* **** **** ********* ****** Kept interrupting me. I left with a feeling that he was barely listening to what I was saying
Visited For Counselling for Depression & Anxiety
Hoped for better: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for money
Felt that the diagnosis was made too quickly with very few questions. Many issues were not addressed and labelled as "depression, etc." and left as is without any in-depth work. There was no space to talk about issues. Rather, the psychologist took most of the time to give ********* homework and too much advice. As the sessions progressed, the minutes of these sessions reduced. Also felt a severe sense of disconnect and lack of support in dealing with normal emotions like sadness and grief. All in all, an empathetic, patient, and client-oriented approach was what I felt was lacking.
Visited For Anxiety Disorder Counselling
Hoped for better: Value for moneyTreatment satisfaction
Went because I had lot of anxiety... barely had got any substantial inputs . I understand the process of mental health treatment, the way big hospitals finction and that one can't expect solutions and miracles in one visit.I was told to do more tests to without any explanation of why , what and outcomes? The one time consultation didn't help me nor did I feel like wanting to go back. whatever said and done it's definitely definitely not worth 1500 rupees. Not sure how much it is for online consultation. Please look into more experienced people.

Visited For Child Psychology
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issue
I am really impressed by the time the doctor took to analyze the issue and helped me understand how to become a great parent. I just wish I could spend more time on this with my kid and myself.
Between 5 to 10 minutes of waiting time, I got my consultation. The doctor approached well and discussed the issues closely. His advice and treatment were helpful in resolving the problems. I am happy with the whole experience.
